Abstract

A hinge comprises a twin-shaft body, a first shaft, a first connecting part, a second shaft, and a second connecting part: the twin-shaft body is designed to have mounting holes on its both sides for the holes securely inserted into the first shaft and the second shaft which are coupled with the first connecting part and the second connecting part separately for the connecting parts turning around the shafts and turning angles restricted by two pairs of retainers and stoppers, each of which is designed on one shaft and one connecting part, respectively; the first connecting part is effective in enabling rotation of an electronic device's first device body which turns to a specific angle and drive the twin-shaft body to turn around the second shaft for the electronic device's first device body over the second device body.
